owl: Stylized barn owl (grrr)

I have no objection to giving £10 to breast cancer, but I do object to being forced to pay it as a forfeit if I don't wear pink tomorrow. When I give £10 to charity, I'll gift aid it, you idiots, and guess what, the charity will end up with £12 instead.

And also, thanks for telling us the day before, when a) my pink tshirt is at my parents' house and b) Marks and Spencer have stopped selling the 47 varieties of pink tshirt that they were selling whenever I wanted a blue one.

THere's always the option of "I'm sorry, I object to this on principle because such a high flat rate unfairly impacts on lower-paid members of staff. If it is reviewed so that everyone pays the same proportion of their net income, then I may reconsider." Yes, I am a mean-spirited cow who doesn't like being told what to do with my money in order to make other people (ie. the organisers) feel good.
